PREMIER LEAGUE : THURSDAY – 05/12/2024 (PHOTO – ALEX IWOBI AND FULHAM CELEBRATE!)

ALEX IWOBI SCORED THE FIRST GOAL OF A BRILLIANT BRACE EARLY DOORS INTO THE MATCH BETWEEN FULHAM VS BRIGHTON AT JUST 4 MINUTES YESTERDAY, HITTING THE BACK-OF-THE-NET WITH A BRILLIANT SHOT, WITH MUCH ACTION TO FOLLOW! BRIGHTON HAD 13 SHOTS IN TOTAL, WITH 3 ON TARGET, AND FULHAM HAD 6 SHOTS, WITH 2 ON TARGET, (WITH BRIGHTON HAVING 57% POSSESSION.) THEN AT 56 MINS., BRIGHTON’S CARLOS NOOM QUOMAH BALEBA SENT A POWERFUL SHOT INTO THE BACK-OF-THE-NET FROM QUITE A DISTANCE, (CUE BRILLIANT BACK-SOMERSAULT CELEBRATION – DON’T TRY THIS AT HOME!) BUT THEN AT 79 MINS. MATT O’RILEY’S BACK GOT IN THE WAY OF THE BALL, WITH THE BALL SKIMMING OFF IT AND INTO HIS OWN GOAL, AND WITH ALEX IWOBI SCORING THE SECOND GOAL OF HIS BRACE AT 87 MINS., THIS DRAMATIC MATCH CULMINATED IN A 3 – 1 WIN TO FULHAM, AND ALEX IWOBI BEEN AWARDED PLAYER OF THE MATCH!

 BOURNEMOUTH WENT ABOVE TOTTENHAM IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE TABLE LAST NIGHT, AFTER 19 YEAR-OLD HUIJSEN HEADED THE BALL INTO THE BACK-OF-THE-NET, UNCHALLENGED, AT 17 MINS. INTO THE MATCH! (HE HAD SNUCK AROUND THE BACK OF ALL THE TOTTENHAM LEGS, AND HEADED THE BALL IN FROM THE CORNER, TAKING EVERYONE BY SURPRISE!) IT WAS A FEISTY AFFAIR, WITH A FURTHER 21 SHOTS WITH 8 ON TARGET FOR BOURNEMOUTH, AND 12 SHOTS FOR TOTTENHAM, WITH 4 ON TARGET, WHO, INTERESTINGLY, RETAINED 66% POSSESSION, WITH GREAT GOALKEEPING ON BOTH SIDES. AND NOTABLY, DOMINIC SOLANKE (HAVING JUST RETURNED FROM INJURY),  WAS LOOKING FIGHTING-FIT AGAIN, AND READY-FOR-ACTION WITH AN EARLY OPPORTUNITY THWARTED BY HUIJSEN’S NIMBLE BOOTS, SENDING HIS BALL OVER THE BAR! ALL-IN-ALL IT WAS EXCITING STUFF – WITH HUIJSEN BECOMING THE CHERRIES’ YOUNGEST EVER PREMIER LEAGUE GOAL-SCORER, AND ALSO PLAYER OF THE MATCH!
